Parkhouse Award presents the Paddington Trio (piano trio)

Having started their first adventure together at Paddington Station during the pandemic in 2020, the Paddington Trio has quickly emerged as a unique and versatile ensemble of a lasting entity. Hailed for their “nuanced and powerful performance” the trio won first prizes in the Royal Over-Seas League and Parkhouse Award competitions.

With thoughtfully curated programming and passionate advocacy of new classical music, the Paddington Trio won first prizes at the New Formats Project Prize 2022 in Graz and at the Clara Schumann International Competition.

In March 2023, the trio made their concerto debut, where they performed Beethoven's Triple Concerto under Jan Söderblom with the Jyväskylä Sinfonia. They have had the immense privilege to perform in prestigious halls and series such as Wigmore Hall, LSO St. Luke's, Oxford Coffee Concerts, St. George’s Bristol, Brighton Dome and BBC Total Immersion concert series. They have appeared on YLE Radio (Finland) and BBC Radio 3 In Tune.

Having all studied individually at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, the trio is currently in the Guildhall Artist Fellowship programme and seek to build engaging concert programmes curated for changing times and audiences. They have recently been awarded the prestigious Junior Fellowship in Chamber Music at the Royal Northern College of Music.
